'On November 9 2004, a new version of Mozilla's browser called Firefox
shipped. It was taking on one of the most daunting monopolies in tech:
Microsoft's Internet Explorer, which had more than 90 percent market
share. But Firefox was really good, and it became an instant hit,
ending Microsoft's dominance of the web. Over at Fast Company, Sean
Captain took a look at the browser's original rise, the challenges it
faced after Google's Chrome arrived on the scene, and the moves it's
currently making to put user privacy first.'
